Rumored WrestleMania 39 Matches
Plans can always change, of course. But several reports have indicated that WWE is planning to run a dream match between Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and The Rock. The latter has expressed interest in facing Reigns, but his busy acting career and work in the XFL (set to relaunch in 2023) could prevent the match from happening next year.
It has also been reported that Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey will rekindle their feud at The Showcase of Immortals next year. The two stars and Charlotte Flair headlined WrestleMania 35 three years ago, with Lynch emerging victorious to become the new Raw and SmackDown Women's Champion.
